Geshe Thupten Negi and Lama Kalsang Nyima perform a sacred dance from the Bön tradition of Tibetan Buddhism. \nThis is a benefit concert for Tibetan children at Menri Monastery in India and for refugee children in India and Nepal. \nEveryone is welcome to come and experience the transformative power of music\, sound\, and community.
